	How do I know so much about these trucks?? I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Check the ground wire above the sender where it screws into the sheetmetal. The factory senders on these truck are 0-30 ohms ranging from "E" to "F". If the needle pegs "F" when the key is on, it is a grounding issue...if the needle pegs "E" when the key is on, it is a power issue. The fuel gauge wiring harness runs from the bottom of the fuse block, under the rubber floor mat, along the driver side door sill and up the driver side "B" pillar, across the top of the fuel tank. Trace the brown wire along this path to determine if there is a breach in the wire.

Please let us know what you find.
